There's no time to waste!

"Liu Geqing?" Chen Gongshu lowered his voice and called out tentatively.

The person moved slightly and slowly raised their head.

His left eye was swollen like a steamed bun and could not be opened at all. His right eye could barely be opened a crack. His face was covered with blood and bruises, and his lips were cracked and bleeding.

But when he saw Chen Gongshu, his barely open eye suddenly lit up, and his voice became so hoarse it was almost inaudible: "I am Liu Geqing, you...you are Commander Chen!...I...I've seen your picture..."

"It's me." Chen Gongshu crouched down, opened the first-aid kit, and pretended to check his injuries. His fingers secretly felt for his pulse on his wrist, and he whispered, "We've come to get you out of here. Can you walk?"

His gaze swept quickly across the other person's face, trying to find the outline of the photo in the bloodstains, but he found that the other person's face shape was slightly different from Liu Geqing in the photo. However, the light was too dim at the moment, and he was not sure if he was seeing things.

Liu Geqing shook his head, his lips moving slightly. Chen Gongshu leaned closer to hear him clearly: "My leg... is broken... Don't worry about me... Commander Chen shouldn't... shouldn't have risked his life to save me..."

His voice was weak and feeble, each word requiring immense effort to utter. Fine beads of cold sweat trickled down his forehead, mingling with blood as they flowed down his cheeks.

"Stop talking nonsense." Chen Gongshu gestured for Zhou Ming to help, and the two of them lifted Liu Geqing up from either side.

Liu Geqing groaned, but gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound. His body trembled slightly, as if he was enduring great pain.

As Chen Gongshu lifted him up, he deliberately nudged his collar with his elbow. The Liu Geqing in the photograph had a prominent mole on his left neck, a very noticeable feature, but the man before him had a smooth, unmarked left neck.

Chen Gongshu's heart sank, and he instantly realized something was wrong.

This person is fake!

Where is the real Liu Geqing?! And why does this person claim to be Liu Geqing?!

Instantly, Chen Gongshu broke out in a cold sweat!

No wonder they got in so easily!

The Japanese army was setting a trap to lure people from Beiping Station to come and rescue them, and then capture them all.

He immediately thought of the military doctor who had provided the intelligence. It seemed that the informant had already been exposed and used by the Japanese. The so-called intelligence that "Liu Geqing is still alive" was simply a trap carefully designed by the Japanese army.

Just then, hurried footsteps came from above.

Chen Gongshu's heart tightened.

coming! ! !

The Japanese army had clearly let them in on purpose, and now they had tightened the encirclement, waiting to trap them like turtles in a jar.

Chen Gongshu acted decisively, pulling out a grenade, biting off the pin with his teeth, and throwing it up the steps while shouting, "Go!"

With a deafening roar, the shockwave from the grenade explosion shook the basement, filling it with smoke and dust, and sending rubble and wood chips flying everywhere.

The Japanese soldier on the steps screamed and fell into a pool of blood.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Chen Gongshu and Zhou Ming grabbed the imposter Liu Geqing and rushed out of the basement.

The stairs above had been blown to pieces, the walls were cracked, tables and chairs were overturned, and seven or eight Japanese soldiers lay in pools of blood.

A piercing alarm and shouts from Japanese soldiers came from the courtyard. The beam of the searchlight instantly focused on the main house entrance, and a large number of Japanese soldiers rushed over with guns, bullets raining down on them.

Boom... Boom...

Two grenades exploded, forcing the swarming Japanese soldiers to seek cover.

It was Sun the Cripple who was covering for them!

"Quick! Get in the car!" Chen Gongshu shouted, and the three of them stumbled and ran towards the ambulance.

Sun the Cripple had already started the car, the door wide open. Seeing them rushing over, he immediately shouted, "Get in the car! The Japanese have surrounded the yard!"

After shouting, two more grenades were thrown.

They had just pushed the imposter Liu Geqing into the car when a hail of bullets came flying at them.

The sound of gunfire was incessant, bullets hitting the car with clanging sounds and sparks flying.

Sun the Cripple floored the accelerator, and the ambulance sped out of the yard like a madman, smashing open the not-yet-fully-opened iron gate. The wheels rolled over the snow on the ground and rushed out of the alley.

The gunfire behind them grew increasingly intense, and Japanese patrol cars started up and chased after the ambulance, their searchlights following closely behind, revealing the ambulance's movements.

Sun the Cripple drove incredibly fast, weaving left and right through the narrow alleys, the wheels crunching over the snow and kicking up clouds of snowflakes. Chen Gongshu leaned out of the car window and fired his pistol backward, the bullet accurately extinguishing a searchlight and temporarily escaping the beam of light.

"There's a roadblock ahead!" Zhou Ming suddenly shouted, pointing to the alleyway entrance. There, the Japanese army had set up a roadblock with sandbags and barbed wire. A Type 11 light machine gun was already mounted, and several Japanese soldiers lay prone behind the sandbags, their guns pointed at them, ready to fire at any moment.

Instead of slowing down, Sun the Cripple slammed on the gas pedal.

The ambulance was going faster and faster. Just as it was about to hit the roadblock, he suddenly turned the steering wheel. The ambulance lifted to the side, with two wheels off the ground, and narrowly missed the edge of the roadblock.

The carriage rubbed violently against the barbed wire, sending sparks flying, and several deep scratches appeared on the carriage body.

Machine gun bullets followed closely behind, hitting the rear compartment of the ambulance and riddling it with holes.

"Hold on tight! I'm turning into the narrow alley!" Sun the Cripple shouted, jerking the steering wheel, and the ambulance sped into a narrow alley next to it.

The alley was very narrow, only wide enough for one vehicle to pass through. The walls on both sides were very high, preventing the Japanese patrol cars from following in and allowing them to temporarily shake off their pursuers.

But Chen Gongshu knew that this was only temporary. The Japanese army would definitely mobilize manpower immediately to block off all the surrounding alleys, and they had to get to the rendezvous point as soon as possible.

He glanced back at the imposter Liu Geqing, who was huddled in the corner of the carriage. There was no panic in his eyes, but rather a strange smile that grew more and more maniacal.

Chen Gongshu's eyes turned cold. He reached for his gun, pointed it at Chen's temple, and spoke in an icy tone.

"Who are you? Where is the real Liu Geqing?"

The imposter Liu Geqing smiled, his voice still hoarse but tinged with sarcasm: "Chen Gongshu, you're indeed shrewd, you actually managed to see through my disguise."

But what's the use now?! Hahaha!

The real Liu Geqing? He was executed by us three days ago. He was very stubborn and refused to confess, even under duress, and was eventually beaten to death.

He paused, his eyes turning fierce: "We're here to lure you Military Intelligence Bureau agents here; you can't escape!"

Do you know why you were able to come out? It's to attract more people!

Haha, I just didn't expect it to be you, Chen Gongshu, who came!

Now our plan can achieve even greater results! Hahaha!

"Stop struggling! Today, all the anti-Japanese forces in Beiping will be completely wiped out by us! Hahaha!" The man laughed maniacally, completely disregarding his own life and death!
